Suddenly, Arthur spotted his female neighbor! She was looking at him with a broad smile, her quiet demeanor a stark contrast to those around her, as if she were waiting for his spectacular performance.
Instantly, Arthur stopped being nervous. Oh~ he had promised the other person they would watch his performance today~
Although this was just an accident~
Seeing his female neighbor's smile, Arthur regained his confidence, and his uncontrollable laughter disappeared without him even realizing it. Following the inspiration he had written down in his notebook, he threw out one joke after another, eliciting applause and laughter from everyone present.
"Indeed, the idea that true love conquers all works everywhere." — Keisha, Super God Academy World.
"If I had my senior dressed as a bunny girl watching me, I could do anything!" Rascal Does Not Dream of a Bunny Girl Senpai World, Sakuta Azusagawa.
"Idiot! What are you talking about?!" Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai World, Mai Sakurajima.
"Hehe, what's Nishikata thinking?" — Takagi-san, the master of teasing.
"What? I didn't think of anything!" — Takagi-san, the master of pranks, from the world of Nishikata.
"Ahhh~ Ling Chen, I want one too!" The villain initializes the world, Joey.
"Get out!" The villain initializes the world, Ling Chen.
"Hmph!" The villain initializes the world. Joey, you wicked Ling Chen, you just wait. Wait until you fall in love with my charm and see how I torture you!
Chapter 115 Arthur: The Rich Second Generation is Actually Me?
After the performance, Arthur happily went shopping with his female neighbor, celebrating his first very successful performance.
Looking at the various comments about the 'clown murder case' in the newspaper, Arthur imitated the clown in the article, making an exaggerated expression.
"You believe those lies?"
The female neighbor quietly walked up behind Arthur, and seeing him staring at the newspaper, assumed that Arthur also thought the Joker was wrong.
"To hell with them, I think the guy who took them down is a hero."
The female neighbor spoke earnestly to Arthur. As someone struggling at the bottom of society, he knew things couldn't possibly be as the newspapers described.
After all, the only news you can completely trust is the hourly time, right?
"Gotham City has lost three bastards, but there are still a million to get rid of."
Hearing his female neighbor say this, Arthur grinned happily. He didn't need to worry that his girlfriend would be afraid of him; in fact, she approved of him more than anyone else!
Perhaps one day, when I tell her that I am the infamous clown, she will be very surprised!
Suddenly, Arthur paused, slightly startled. He saw a person inside a taxi wearing a clown mask, the mask's expression sinister as it stared at him.
Has things really gotten this far?
However, Arthur was very happy because, through him, these people also learned to resist injustice!
[May their lives get better and better, just like mine!]
When Arthur returned home, Murray's farewell speech was playing on the television.
"That's life~"
As Arthur pondered these words, he realized for the first time that life could be happy.
"Mom, it's time to get up and go to bed."
"Xiao Le, I've written another letter."
"Come on, dance with me."
[Helping his mother up, Arthur happily pulled her along, dancing together.]
"It's for Thomas Wayne; the letter is very important."
[As her mother instructed him, a smile involuntarily crept onto her face as Arthur moved.]
"You smell of cologne."
"Because I just went on a date with someone important."
"Don't forget to mail the letter."
After escorting his mother back to her room and gently blowing her a kiss, Arthur felt more comfortable than ever before.
"Arthur really cares about his family. Even though he has lived in such a repressive life for a long time, he still doesn't indulge in the beauty of dating and thinks about going home to take care of his mother." - Forensic doctor Qin Mingshijie, Li Dabao.
"Arthur's life should continue to be good like this, right? His career is improving, his love life is improving, he has learned to resist oppression, and he can even control his illness!" Xia Ling, in the world of Zhenhun Street.
"Although I really want to agree with what this lady said, but..." Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Sand Gold.
"It's going a little too smoothly, even to the point of feeling unreal." Zero World, Zhe.
"Where does this sense of unease come from?" Black Jack World, Black Jack.
"Where? What's so strange about this?" Doraemon world, Nobita Nobi.
"...It's nothing, go have fun..." Welcome to the world of Classroom of the Elite, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.
Looking at the envelope on the table, Arthur suddenly felt curious. His mother had always sealed the envelopes and he had to mail them himself; this was the first time Arthur had seen an opened letter.
Thinking this, Arthur slowly opened the envelope.
[Sit down in a chair and slowly begin to study.]
If the contents of the letter were too outrageous, Arthur would simply advise his mother not to send any more letters.
[It's been so many years since she last wrote. Perhaps this is just wishful thinking on her part.]
[After all, it was a working relationship from who-knows-how-many years ago. It's a favor if a wealthy man like Thomas Wayne is willing to help them, and it's simply his right not to bother with them.]
Of course, Arthur's pride also played a part; his performance was a great success, and he was now capable of providing a better life for his mother.
Arthur felt no sympathy for Thomas Wayne, who criticized and scorned him on television. He would certainly stop his mother if her words were too subservient!
Thinking this, Arthur began to read the letter. His mother's handwriting was delicate and elegant, very beautiful.
[Dear Thomas]
You may not know the current situation my son and I are in.
Yes, Mother. How could a wealthy and powerful person like us care about the lives of ordinary citizens like us?
You know I love you very much.
I've written you many letters recently and look forward to your reply.
Yes, Mother, it's not just recently; you've been writing letters all these years, but you've never received a response.
I need your help. Your son and I need your help.
Yes, Mother, we are having a hard time and need his help, your son...?!
[His son? Thomas Wayne's son?!]
Upon seeing this, Arthur froze, his previously casual expression turning serious and incredulous.
I am... Thomas Wayne's son?
"How is this possible!" In the DC universe, Bruce Wayne jumped up from his stool!
That Arthur, no! That clown! How could he possibly be Father's child!
Chapter 116 The Manor: Children should smile more~
"Really? Is it that outrageous?" Xia Ling, in the world of Zhenhun Street.
"Ah ha~ This is so much fun." Honkai Impact 3rd Railway World, Fireworks.
"Judging from the current living conditions of Arthur and his mother, even if it were true, Thomas Wayne wouldn't admit to the relationship. If the other party still had feelings for him, he wouldn't let Arthur be bullied like this every day!" - Zhang Chulan, Under One Person World.
"Uncle, is this true?" In the DC universe, Bruce Wayne.
“No, young master, there is no relationship between Arthur and Grandpa.” — Pennyworth (Butler) in the DC universe.
Bruce's expression was complicated as he read the butler's words, his eyes narrowing slightly. He was willing to believe the butler, but...
Let's continue reading.
Perhaps the heavens will eventually reveal the truth to him.
As for sending someone to investigate? Bruce was still hesitant.
Sitting in his chair, Arthur grew increasingly alarmed as he looked around!
I admit I've been writing too frequently, but you are your son Arthur's only hope.
[Although he's not in good shape, he's a good kid, and you'd be proud of him if you saw him.]
[I will always love you, Penny Fleck]
After reading it, Arthur trembled all over, and the letter in his hand was crumpled and deformed!
Mother, why won't you tell me? You've kept it from me for decades!
Am I really that worthless in my mother's eyes?!
[Would I grovel before Thomas and beg for favors after learning the truth?!]
[That Thomas Wayne, that hypocrite who faked it all on TV, mocking himself as a clown!]
[It's...my own father?!]
Arthur abruptly stood up, strode over to his mother, and demanded to know if it was all true.
However, Arthur's mother was also panicked. She never imagined that in just a moment of carelessness, Arthur would see the contents of the letter!
"You're going to kill me, you're giving me a heart attack!"
Faced with Arthur's questioning, the mother knew that hiding the truth was no longer effective.
She ran quickly back to the room, blocking Arthur from entering.
"Don't give me your... thump thump thump thump!"
Arthur pounded on the door! Why, why are you still hiding now! Is it so hard to tell me the truth?!
"No! No! I won't speak to you until you calm down."
"OK...OK...I'm not angry anymore, Mom...I'm not angry anymore, please."
"Mom, is it true?"
Perhaps it was because of Arthur's reassurance, or perhaps because Arthur's mother knew she could no longer hide the truth, but she slowly spoke and revealed it.
"He's a remarkable person, Xiao Le."
"We were once in love, but he said that due to external factors, it was best for us not to be together."
"I absolutely cannot tell anyone else, because... I signed some documents."
"And you can imagine what people will say about Thomas and me."
"What will they talk about you?"
Having finally learned the truth from his mother, Arthur was somewhat lost in thought.
"What will they say? Mom?"
[An illegitimate child? No, it's not about me, it's about the damage to Thomas's reputation...]
That night, Arthur pondered for a long time.
[I've finally decided that I will personally deliver this letter to Thomas Wayne and get to the bottom of everything!]
The next day, Arthur sat on the bus to Thomas Wayne's house, thinking about how things might turn out.
He disliked Thomas Wayne because the latter was hypocritical and driven by self-interest.
However, his views have changed somewhat.
[His mother has worked for him for years, so she certainly knows him far better than he does. And what if there's a script on TV?]
Could it be that Thomas Wayne was simply following a script and had no choice but to say those things?
Perhaps... he's a good person?
No! Idiot, calm down!
Thomas is a well-known businessman in high society; he wouldn't tarnish his reputation!
